OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

HOOYAH!!! Congrats on everyone getting their I'M A SAILOR CALL!!! See you all at PIR!!!!
Comment by fa4airtran on June 15, 2011 at 6:08pm
Just got a 40 min call also!  He didn't start out by saying he "passed" or that "he is a sailor"  He said "Hi Baby. Battle Stations was so much fun" I don't think they realized how much anxiety we had waiting for that call.  He acted like it was no big deal, however he did get choked upduring the capping ceremony when they played the Lee Greenwood song.

Just got off the phone with my Sailor!  YEAH!  As far as he knows, the whole of 205 passed.  They've been up since 5 am yesterday, did well, and are basically marching around to stay awake till bed time tonight.  He ordered the video of PIR as a gift for me so that I can see it.  I'm thrilled with his thoughtfulness.  I can't wait to see him in A school.

Just received a 40 minute call from my son!!  Everyone in Div 205 PASSED!!!!!  See you all tomorrow!!!!!
Comment by Squeekerz on June 15, 2011 at 5:57pm
OMG you guys all must be so excited! Less than 2 days, ladies. :)  Hopefully I'll get a letter from my RCU imprisoned SR tomorrow.  I didn't get one today. :(  I want him to come home more and more every day... If he would've graduated with everyone else on Friday, things would've been so different.  It makes me wonder if there truly is a different plan in store for us....

My SR has to leave from OHare at 0600 Sat morning. He will be at the airport at 0200. He would like to eat steak....he thinks Ruth Chris steak sounds good...how about Applebees????
